A big huge gigantic public thank you to raving_liberal who listened to me whine and worry and talked me down for like an hour and a half the other night. She is smart and empowered, and knew just what to say to help me get my confidence back ( Read more... )

Ugggh! Ben is actually asleep right now. You'd think that would make my day, right? We are babysitting for my friend Kelly's three kids tonight and he was way cranky this afternoon, so I told him that if he napped he could stay up with them and play instead of having to go to bed 45 minutes after they got here. He agreed (and was really tired) and ( Read more... )

It's not my fault. I knew I was in trouble when whitehousemom wrote about her experience with McDonalds coffee. I was previously avoiding the whole situation because I just didn't want it to be true ( Read more... )

Anyway, it's really nice and a mac which makes me really jealous because even though I quit my job more than two months ago, ( Read more... )

 I figured I finally gave in and upgraded to lj plus so I might as well do a poll. I mean, c'mon. All the cool kids are doing it. So, like other polls, you can pick and choose your questions. Some are pretty personal. I won't be offended if you skip them. Just answer the ones you are comforatable answering. But for goodness sakes, don't lie, mmmkay ( Read more... )

I guess I owe everyone a report, since I promised, but there really isn't much. I was unhappy with the number of questions they asked, but other than that it went fine I guess. I liked being able to prepare there ... it was probably worth my $20. As far as the actual immersing, yeah, its not as beautiful and spiritual as I had hoped. I mean, it's ( Read more... )
